Customer Reviews of Back Home
One of their best yet "Back Home", the fifth studio album from folk-rock group Caedmon's Call, finds a middle ground between the acoustic folk rock of their early years and the experimental pop of recent years (particularly their "Long Line of Leavers" CD), but tends to lean more toward their musical roots. The opening track, "Only Hope", features the familiar acoustic guitars, vocal harmonies, and worldly percussion that have established Caedmon's Call as one of the most unique sounding groups in Christian Music. Two others that feature these signature elements are "Hands of the Potter" and "Awake My Soul", two lively numbers, the latter of which has a bit of a zydeco feel to it. However, many of the tracks build on that signature sound to provide something totally enjoyable. Standouts include "You Created", with the trade off between male and female vocals of Cliff and Danielle Young; "The High Countries", which features Danielle's smooth voice against a mellow musical backdrop somewhat reminiscent of parts of U2's "The Joshua Tree" CD; and "The Kingdom", which combines majestic string arrangements with some Asian influences. Lyrically, the biggest change is in the songwriters: instead of relying solely on their usual songwriters, Aaron Tate and Derek Webb, they brought in a host of songwriters including band member Josh Moore, Webb's wife and independent artist Sandra McCracken, Randall Goodgame, Andrew Peterson, and others. Tate and Webb only contribute one song, "Beautiful Mystery", which they co-wrote with Cliff Young. Still, the quality of the lyrics remains the same: contemplative, introspective, and thought-provoking. Webb fans may also be disappointed to hear only two songs featuring his lead vocal ("Awake My Soul" and "The Emptiest Day"), but take heart: Webb's solo release comes out March 25. (This just in: word has it that Derek has left the band to pursue his solo career, so this may really be our last chance to hear him with Caedmon's Call.) Altogether, this CD is truly one of their best, and is sure to please both old-school fans and new fans alike. I highly recommend it!
Ancient-Future Music for the Postmodern Christian
Great music with lyrical depth and musical breadth; just what postmodern Christians need. This is one of the best CDs I've ever listened to. Highly recommended!
My most favorite Christian album
This is a fantastic album. I especially like "Hands of the Potter" and "Thousand Miles." I was blessed to see them perform live with Jars of Clay at their home church (Second Baptist - Houston). They outshined Jars by 1000 miles! And I really like JOC too! I'm 50 yrs old, and this music speaks to me as well as to the younger crowd. An awesomely talented group.
